Hi,

I've given up on the USB stick and try to install it on a virtual machine. Still not working but advancing slowly.

Steps follow:
1) Run voyage sdk iso
2) install sdk in the virtual machine
3) Run the vm with the voyage sdk installed
4) remountrw
5) download kernel sourcecode from voyage
6) apply the .config file from voyage
7) apt-get update
8) apt-get install dialog
9) grub-set-default 0 --> otherwise I get an error when installing the kernel debian package
10) Set up the kernel and compile it
make-kpkg --revision="3.0usb" --append-to-version "-jlanza-voyage" kernel-image
11) dkpg -i kernel.deb
12) reboot....
I got the error:
Root-NFS: no NFS server address
VFS: unable to mount root fs via NFS, trying floppy
VFS: Cannot open root device "sda1" or unknown-block(2,0)
Please append a correct "root=".....
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS unable to mount.....


Any help??? Without compiling and installing the new kernel the system works well. Then, how can I create an image with my own kernel?

See you
Jorge

Hi,

Have tried the installation on USB stick following the info in
http://linux.voyage.hk/content/getting-started-live-cd-v08x

And no luck at all.

I'm just wondering if anybody has been able to install Voyage on a USB
and boot a laptop or PC with it :(

Any help is more than welcome.

No I haven't because I want to customize the kernel for including some
communication aspects that are not included.

See you

Hi George,

Have you try burn the iso image directly to the USB flash drive? The iso
is generated using hybrid iso that this way is supposed to work.... But
I have not tried yet.... so I need a helper for that.

I've been following your howto on Voyage Linux on a USB flash drive
but I haven't been successful to boot my laptop using the USB with
Voyage Linux.

Following this link I have generated the kernel debian package setting
the options for USB to "y"

# CONCURRENCY_LEVEL=3 DEB_HOST_ARCH=i386 ARCH=i386 make-kpkg --arch
i386 --cross-compile - --revision="3.0usb" --append-to-version
"-486-voyage" --initrd kernel-image

I'm using ubuntu 10.04 as the build system.

Then I have chroot in the voyage-0.8.0 directory to install the new
kernel. But I've got the following error a the end of the installation:
--------

Could you give me any advice that can help me out?

Thanks
